Native Instruments Unveils Kontrol Z1 for Traktor

Today, Native Instruments introduced their newest Traktor addition: the Kontrol Z1, which acts as a smaller, more compact version of their popular Z2.

The Z1's main features are its 24-bit soundcard, two channels worth of 3-Band EQ, and dedicated filters. It's also compatible with not only your laptop, but amazingly your iPad and iPhone as well. No exact release date for the Z1 has been shared yet, but the units are currently available to pre-order for the pretty cheap price I think of $199. A demo video showing off NI's latest creation can be seen below.
